​General Information
The work party is totally free, and we'll feed you lunch!

​RSVP so we know how many to cook for! Yes, it's okay to come for part of the day. Wear clothes you don't mind getting muddy, including layers for inclement weather. Sometimes clay can stain. Gloves (or shoes) are not necessary but feel free to bring them if you desire. 100% waterproof/ sturdy vinyl nitrile gloves are best if you do want them, we have some to loan.

We practice foundational methods for applying the same skills and materials to projects of your own imagination, in your own home! Earthen building is surprisingly versatile, durable, low-tech, non-toxic, and beautiful - a fine addition to any home construction or retrofit. We will discuss application, appropriate technology, and methodology for building with earth in this climate as we work, sing, and play together.

There is no designated childcare, but children are most welcome. Elders, as well, who wish to sit and watch, (or work only a little!). Musicians who would like to serenade us...  we'll feed you all!

    How much should I donate? Many teachers & Schools of Earthen Building charge an average of $100 per day for their classes. While we set up the workshops so we meet our basics for launching the project, additional funds go toward the thriving viability of this model for earthen building education, and makes the work Sustainable. Thanks!
